Hokage: I, Kakuzu, Immortal God

Since ancient times, it seems that people from the seventh class have taken over as Hokage, or it is not impossible for apprentices to take over the great achievements of their masters.

However, this decadent system was rectified by Boruto.

I don't mind bringing this excellent system forward.

After hearing these words, Sakumo fell into silence.

The Battle of Mount Kikyo was the decisive battle between Konoha and Sunagakure.

As the Kazekage and commander-in-chief, Rasa wanted to end the battle quickly.

But it's not like he can decide these things.

His opponent is Orochimaru, whose strength and IQ are both online.

Under Orochimaru's steady strategy, Sunagakure's logistics finally collapsed.

A little over half a year later, the final decisive battle came to the northwest of Konoha.

The battle of Shenwu Biqiao.

This is Iwagakure's attack on Konoha.

Another [-] Iwa ninjas came in surprise, but this time it was different from the one by the Third Raikage.

The third generation Raikage is also the top powerhouse of the contemporary era, comparable to the existence of tailed beasts.

If you can't win with 1 people, why can't you stop it?

But there is no such person in Konoha, not even the leader of the new generation, Namikaze Feng Shuimon.

If these 1 people really get close, Konoha will have to fight them hand-to-hand.

How many people will die then depends on God's will.

The only thing Konoha can do is to destroy the food transportation channel of Jinmubi Bridge. In this way, Iwagakure's 1 people will be destroyed without attack.

And Konoha did just that.

Finally, the Fire Nation signed a peace treaty with the Wind and Earth Nations.

The battle with the Kingdom of Thunder, a long-standing opponent, has not ended, and the friction in the border battles is still there.

But this is not important anymore, local war cannot affect the entire ninja world.

In the mist without gunpowder smoke, the Third Ninja War gradually came to an end.

Konoha, Hokage Building, the highest level conference room.

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his pipe, his eyes slightly melancholy.

"During the Third Ninja War, I misjudged Kumogakure's movements. I...cannot bear the blame, and am willing to give up my position as the Third Hokage."

These words represent the end of an era.

Konoha Village, which has been in power for 20 years, is finally about to change its leadership.

The people below couldn't help but start to get excited.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen broke some people's illusions as soon as he arrived.

"Danzo, we are all ninjas of the older generation, so we should give these opportunities to young people."

"Especially the people who have contributed the most to the battlefield this time. They can let the village continue to shine and illuminate the next generation, don't you think?"

Thick smoke spurted out, and while Danzo felt uncomfortable, it also blocked the road behind him.

A new era and a new future. Growing up together, Danzo Sarutobi Hiruzen knew very well the character of Danzo. He would not let Danzo, the dark ninja world, take over Konoha.

Danzo looked extremely gloomy at this, but he didn't say much.

Because he still had a backup plan.

The rest of the matter is not up to them, at least on the surface.

When Konoha was founded, the first Hokage Senju Hashirama was jointly elected by all the ninja clan.

In the generation of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the situation has changed.

The decision of the ninja clan became a collective vote of the jounin in the village.

If most of the Jonin do not support it, the Hokage position will still not be secure.

This is why it is said that you can become Hokage only after gaining everyone's approval.

To be honest, there are quite a few candidates for the Fourth Hokage of Konoha.

Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Tsunade, Namikaze Minato.

Jiraiya couldn't find anyone anymore, just forget it.

After Tsunade took the initiative to withdraw, she mentioned someone.

Hatake Sakumo.

Let the hero of the village stand in everyone's sight again.

In the Third Ninja War, if Hatake Sakumo hadn't stepped forward and relied on Konoha's misjudgment of Kumogakure, many people would have died.

Although Hatake Sakumo had a so-called "black history" in Konoha before.

But Hatake Sakumo remembered that Kakuzu once told him about him.

People's hearts are like water.

I can carry you.It can also cover you.

A strong person needs to guide the flow of this water so that it will not be overturned and difficult to collect.

This time Hatake Sakumo bravely stood up.

The Hatake clan has great military achievements for the entire Konoha.

This Hokage was done by others, why couldn't he do it!

As for Namikaze Minato.

The combat performance this time was also very impressive.

Kannabiqiao, he has contributed to the battle against AB brothers.

But compared to Orochimaru and Hatake Sakumo, he was still weaker.

In his early twenties, he can only be regarded as the apprentice of the two of them now.

As for Orochimaru.

On the eve of the voting results, he was called to the office alone by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The conversation probably lasted more than an hour.

After Orochimaru came out of the office, his face was expressionless at first, and then an evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

His shadow grew longer and longer under the setting sun.

"You are not afraid of chilling Orochimaru's heart."

Listening to the voice coming from next door, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not look back, but shook his head lightly.

"I know that my disciple, Tsunade Jiraiya, can do it, but Orochimaru's eyes hide his evil intentions, and I cannot hand over Konoha to him."

After saying this, Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a long time before speaking again.

"Kakuzu-sama, I heard that Tsunade will return to the Dragon Kingdom after the incident."

"Yes, she still has unpaid gambling debts."

It's funny to say that Tsunade's salary in Dragon Kingdom is not low. After all, she is one of the few medical ninjas.

But every time after her salary was paid, Tsunade didn't think about paying off the debt at all, and went straight into the gambling house. Not only that, she continued to take credit.

One debt after another, Tsunade may not be able to pay off all her debts in this lifetime.

When Tsunade actually ran up a debt she couldn't repay, Kakuzu was ready to let her do something else.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed helplessly, none of the three disciples were worry-free.

"Kakuzu-sama, please be nice to Tsunade!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up slowly and looked back at the chair he had been sitting on for 20 years.

It would be a lie to say that he was completely relieved mentally, but this time he stood up and the burden that had been weighing on him for many years could be slightly let go.

Only those who have truly become Hokages understand that this position is not easy to sit in.

Not only do you have to bring your own light, but you also have to bear the darkness. If you can't bear this double pressure, then it's best to find someone to share it for you.

Otherwise, people can only be exhausted to death.

"Sakumo, congratulations."

"In any case, Kakuzu-sama, I have to thank you for being able to get to where I am today."

Sakumo scratched his head in embarrassment.

If it hadn't been for Kakuzu's appearance, he would have died a coward.

His understanding of the village is very different now.

"By the way, I forgot to introduce you, this is my son Hatake Kakashi."

"Hello, Kakuzu-sama!"

Looking at the boy who was only in his teens and wearing a black mask to pretend to be cool, Kakuzu walked up and plucked his soft white hair.

I have to say, I feel very comfortable, but Kakashi seems a little unhappy.

But it doesn't matter, Kakuzu likes to see Kakashi like this.

"Your left eye doesn't belong to you!"

Listening to Kakuzu's inquiry, Kakashi touched his scarred left eye with some sadness.

"Yes, he is my best friend!"

Kakuzu didn't say anything. If what was expected was true, Madara in the underground world must have died.

Next, it's time for Obito to cause trouble.
